Tuesday

Christie wasnt there today. She went to the hospital for some tests. When I got there Richard was in her room leaving her a note. It was cute, he put it on her pillow. They really pushed Richard in his therapies today. He walked 15 minutes on the treadmill and rode the bike for 10 minutes. He complained but did great. We had our monthly meeting about him. It was a good pow-wow. He has made it very far. He will move to the other building probably tomorrow. He had a sense of humor today. He kept sticking his tongue out at people. I made fun of him and he gave me the finger. He cracked a couple of jokes. And he won RummyCube and had to do a victory dance. He stood up and got his groove on. I wish I had a camera. By 4pm he was exhausted. He didnt get an afternoon nap because I shaved his head. He didnt like his hair long so I brought clippers and cut it. They also progressed his diet to soft mechanical which basically is the same food he has had but it actually looks like food not ground up puree. He might eat more now because it will look appetizing. Have a great day everyone!! Thanks for reading!

Angie,
I'm so glad Richard is doing so well. I knew he would, he has always been a fighter. You don't know how lucky you are to get to SEE them when ever you want. I miss them so much.
